These include areas such as modes of baptism, the rapture, second coming of Christ, the Lord’s Supper and church practices. On peripheral beliefs, we can agreeably accept differences. +### Divine Familial Terms + +The divine familial terms are the words "Father" and "Son" when they refer to God the Father and God the Son. God is divine, and these terms show their family relationship to each other. Whenever the words "Father" and "Son" are used in the Bible to refer to the relationship between God the Father and God the Son (or between God the Father and Jesus Christ), they should be translated with the literal, ordinary words that people use to show the relationship between a man and his own son.
